An oasis of calm in Fès
Enchanting and an oasis of calm, riad Alkantara is often described. Scattered in the lush garden with several terraces are the five different riads. Each with a different architecture and renovated with care.
Unique location at old medina of Fès
The place is great, near the old medina. The owner and his wife are extremely welcoming and also the staff speaks several languages. Be surprised by the (h)honestly prepared meals and the extremely comfortable rooms. And whenever you want, you can even dine by candlelight at the edge of the pool in the evening. The rooms are all uniquely and comfortably decorated, but not 'over the top'. That fits perfectly with the serene atmosphere of this riad. You have access to a television with DVD player, a desk, minibar and tea and coffee making facilities. Of course, every room is air-conditioned. The large swimming pool offers guests a welcome relief after the dust and heat of the medina. Along the pool are two beautiful palm trees and an old olive tree. Due to the many greenery in the garden you will notice that it is pleasantly cooler here than outside the walls of the riad. This luxurious five-star hotel also features a covered terrace, library, spa, lounge/bar and a gourmet restaurant specialising in dishes from northwest Africa. A lot of care is also taken in breakfast; everything is home-made.
